Why VersaMax?... TEAC’s new VersaMax ribbon for P-55 dye-sublimation thermal disc printer offers customers more media options to choose from including their favorite brand of media. VersaMax allows printing on virtually all thermal media, and even on some inkjet and silver lacquer media as well. So, increasing your media choices reduces your overall cost of printed discs. Plus, with VersaMax, there is no need to buy costly media kits any more.

Delkin CompactFlash Pro UDMA cards...price drop

We have some new lower pricing on the high-speed CompactFlash Pro UDMA cards by Delkin.  We also added the 16GB card today. 


 

From Delkin:

What is UDMA and why do I need it?

UDMA (Ultra Direct Memory Access)

To help explain this we asked our Senior Digital Design Engineer, Chris Wood, to give us his explanation, "The advantages of UDMA over previous transfer modes are the use of double edge clocking, that is transferring data on both the rising and falling edge of the clock thereby doubling the data transfer rate per clock and increased reliability by the use of cyclical redundancy checking (CRC) for data transferred over the bus."

Basically, this new technology facilitates data transfer; dramatically increasing transfer speeds, allowing for a more streamlined workflow process. It's important to note that UDMA technology is ONLY utilized when used in combination with UDMA enabled devices, such as Delkin's FireWire 400/800 reader, the ExpressCard CF adapter, or CardBus32 UDMA adapter.

Why do I need UDMA technology?

  • High card-to-computer transfer times
  • Faster data transfer rates (45MB/s)
  • Streamlines workflow
  • Reduces battery usage in the field
  • More time to make photographs

 

 

High Performance Photography

Delkin's CompactFlash Pro UDMA enabled cards deliver industry-leading read/write speeds with a sustained transfer speed of 305x (45MB/sec). The enhanced camera-to-card and card-to-computer transfer times considerably improve workflow for any pro photographer in the field.

Delkin's CompactFlash Pro UDMA cards when used with the Delkin's line of Pro readers and adapters, dramatically reduces the time needed to download digital image files to a computer. The difference may be crucial for those working in the field with battery operated laptops, and particularly important for pros working in news media, wedding or event photography. Certainly any photographer working with larger RAW files will experience a great benefit in faster transfer speeds in the camera and computer.

KEY FEATURES

  • High data transfer rates - 45 MB/s*
  • UDMA enabled - Faster transferring with UDMA host devices
  • Guaranteed compatible - With all CompactFlash hosts
  • Lifetime warranty - On All Delkin Pro memory cards
  • Technical support - 800-637-8087 (US only)
  • Includes travel safe case - Protects your card
  • Available in - 1GB / 2GB / 4GB / 8GB / 16GB

 

TECH SPECS

  • Speed: 305X (X=150kB/s)
  • Data Transfer Rate (DTR): 45 MB/s
  • Operating temperature: -13°F to 185°F (-25 °C to 85°C)
  • Altitude: 80,000 feet
  • MTBF: >3,000,000 hours
  • RS-ECC: Built in error detection and correction

Upcoming in 2008

Here it is the last day of 2007; overall I would say it was a great year!  2008 looks to be bigger and better on many fronts.  We have some upcoming brands to launch in January along with some changes with some current product lines.

On the pro audio front we will see some new products from our pro AV hard drive manufacturers; there is also a price increase on RMG analog recording tape.  The analog market continues to come back but the costs involved in manufacturing and shipping these products have really jumped.  RMG is still the most cost-effective brand on the market for analog recording sessions.

We should also see some new products for the education market in January; if has been a pleasure working with schools around the U.S. for their AV needs.   Thanks for using Encore Data Products; we really do appreciate the business!

Have a safe and happy new year; all of us look forward to being your supplier of choice in 2008.
